This book was released on 2017-11-07 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Rural Zoning Enabling Acts of the Northern Great Plains States Zoning is a function of the police power of the state. It is a form of public control over the use of private property in the interest of general welfare. Zoning may be defined as the creation of legal districts ulthin.which regulations prohibit injurious or unsuitable structures and uses of land and buildings. The use of this power directly by the state is the exception rather than the rule. Usually the power is delegated to local political subdivisions which may or may not make use of the authority as they see fit. This delegation is by an enabling act which is adopted by the legislature. Usually, such an act names the units of government/which are empowered to zone, lists the types of regulations which may be employed, establishes the procedure by which zoning ordinances are adopted and amended, and provides for a board of adjustment to grant specific cramp tions or variations from.zoning regulations in those cases where strict enforcement would be unreasonable or would result in un necessary hardship.

This book was released on 2018-03-18 with total page 78 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Problems and Suggestions in the Drafting of Rural Zoning Enabling Legislation Zoning is, furthermore, characterized by the generalness of the regulations applied. They are not particularized. Moreover, as commonly conceived zoning cperates prospectively. It has as its object to prevent the recurrence of certain mistakes of the past; and it normally reaches only to preventing the future establishment of the designated misuse. Zoning is not a euro-all, and does not in itself constitute an entire land-use program; but it is rather one of several regulative measures which together might constitute such a program. In certain instances zoning may be desirably used as a center around which the complete program can be built. In other cases, zoning can be more appropriately used as a complement to other land-use measures. In still other cases, zoning may not be necessary at all, for either one or both of two reasons: either the circumstances do not warrant it, or other more feasible measures might accomplish under the circum stances all that zoning could accomplish. When, to what extent, and how the interest of the public in the use of lands is to be protected depends on what the circumstances call for.

This book was released on 2017-11-12 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Some Considerations in Support of the Constitutionality of Rural Zoning as a Police Power Measure In cities, roughly speaking, limitations are imposed governing what buildings may be erected on the land and in what manner, that is, the use of land for building purposes is regulated. In rural zoning, limitations will be put upon the type of agronomy which may be carried on upon the land, that is, the use of land for agronomic purposes will be regulated. As between the two cases there is an identity as to the basic object regulated and a difference merely in their respective designs, resulting from the difference in the general use to which land is put in cities and that to which it is put in the country in cities, land is used on which to erect buildings; in the country, land is used on which to grow things.

Download or read book Zoning Practice in the New York Region Classic Reprint written by Edward Murray Bassett and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-23 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Zoning Practice in the New York Region N this brochure Mr. Edward M. Bassett deals primarily with I the legal phases of zoning, in respect of both the require ments of the law of zoning and its practical application in the New York region. It does not contain any statement of policy regarding the classification of uses and the standards Of heights and densities of buildings. These physical aspects of the problem will be a subject for later consideration and treatment. Nor does it deal with the merits of zoning. The principle of zoning has been almost universally accepted as sound when proper methods are employed in its application. This application in a munici pality has to be by means of ordinances based on' a state enabling act. It is of essential importance that the powers conferred by the state enabling act should be adequate to permit of wise regulation of the uses of land and buildings and of the heights and densities of buildings to be constructed or reconstructed upon the land, and that the ordinances be framed in conformity _with the provisions of the enabling act. The purpose of the brochure is to provide helpful information as a guide for action, in the zoning of their areas, by municipal authorities in the New York region. Part I contains a series-of aids to the practice of zoning. In these aids Mr. Bassett has set forth what he conceives to be the leading considerations that should be borne in mind by municipal councils in giving effect to the powers conferred upon them by the state enabling act in New York, New Jersey, or Connecticut. Part II gives a description of the application of zoning in the City of New York. Part III consists of a model form of a state enabling act with notes prepared by Mr. Bassett; Acts are in force in all three states, and the statutory improvements. Needed are referred to in the first section of Part I. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Zoning: The Division of Cities Into Residence and Industrial Districts: A Discussion of Laws and Ordinances In certain cities of the United States the height of buildings within specified areas has been regulated for several years, and various cities have also regulated the percentages of lot-area which may be built upon. It was not. However, until the last few years that any thorough-going system of zoning was undertaken in this country. Los Angeles in 1909 divided its city into residence and industrial districts.

Download or read book Zoning Rules written by William A. Fischel and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Zoning has for a century enabled cities to chart their own course. It is a useful and popular institution, enabling homeowners to protect their main investment and provide safe neighborhoods. As home values have soared in recent years, however, this protection has accelerated to the degree that new housing development has become unreasonably difficult and costly. The widespread Not In My Backyard (NIMBY) syndrome is driven by voters’ excessive concern about their home values and creates barriers to growth that reach beyond individual communities. The barriers contribute to suburban sprawl, entrench income and racial segregation, retard regional immigration to the most productive cities, add to national wealth inequality, and slow the growth of the American economy. Some state, federal, and judicial interventions to control local zoning have done more harm than good. More effective approaches would moderate voters’ demand for local-land use regulation—by, for example, curtailing federal tax subsidies to owner-occupied housing"--Publisher's description.

Download or read book Land Use Without Zoning written by Bernard H. Siegan and published by Mercatus Center at George Maso. This book was released on 2021-02-05 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The conversation about zoning has meandered its way through issues ranging from housing affordability to economic growth to segregation, expanding in the process from a public policy backwater to one of the most discussed policy issues of the day. In his pioneering 1972 study, Land Use Without Zoning, Bernard Siegan first set out what has today emerged as a common-sense perspective: Zoning not only fails to achieve its stated ends of ordering urban growth and separating incompatible uses, but also drives housing costs up and competition down. In no uncertain terms, Siegan concludes, "Zoning has been a failure and should be eliminated!" Drawing on the unique example of Houston--America's fourth largest city, and its lone dissenter on zoning--Siegan demonstrates how land use will naturally regulate itself in a nonzoned environment. For the most part, Siegan says, markets in Houston manage growth and separate incompatible uses not from the top down, like most zoning regimes, but from the bottom up. This approach yields a result that sets Houston apart from zoned cities: its greater availability of multifamily housing. Indeed, it would seem that the main contribution of zoning is to limit housing production while adding an element of permit chaos to the process. Land Use Without Zoning reports in detail the effects of current exclusionary zoning practices and outlines the benefits that would accrue to cities that forgo municipally imposed zoning laws. Yet the book's program isn't merely destructive: beyond a critique of zoning, Siegan sets out a bold new vision for how land-use regulation might work in the United States. Released nearly a half century after the book's initial publication, this new edition recontextualizes Siegan's work for our current housing affordability challenges. It includes a new preface by law professor David Schleicher, which explains the book's role as a foundational text in the law and economics of urban land use and describes how it has informed more recent scholarship. Additionally, it includes a new afterword by urban planner Nolan Gray, which includes new data on Houston's evolution and land use relative to its peer cities.
